40 Messrs. H. J. Elwes and J. Edwards on 
3S. Upper side brown, the ocellar regions but little paler than 
the remainder ; an ill-defined brown submarginal band; ocellus of 
fore wing moderate in size, unipupillate ; hind wing with two sub- 
anal ocelli, the upper much the smaller, and one anal minute. 
Under side pale brownish grey, somewhat darker by reason of the 
coarser striolation towards the base of the wings; faint traces of 
an oblique post-median dark band on the fore wings; ocelli on the 
hind wing five, the anal one large and bipupilled; the ocellus of 
the fore wing bipupilled. Clasp similar to that of Y. Dohertyi 
(Pl. IL., fig. 31). 
9. Under side like the §. Upper side also similar to the 3, 
but the ocellar spaces are rather paler and faintly irrorate, and the 
ocellus of the fore wing is bipupilled. 
We are not at present able to say whether these 
apparently different forms of Ypthima, which seem to be 
so localised, are really confined to the limited areas from 
which alone at present we know them ; restricted, how- 
ever, as they seem to be to the higher ranges, it is possible 
that the intervening tracts of lower country act as a bar- 
rier to their extension and interbreeding, and thus tend 
to produce variations which, however slight, cannot be 
overlooked, if constant. The attention of collectors and 
travellers in these hill ranges cannot be too closely 
directed to such apparently trifling points as these, and 
therefore we have felt justified in giving provisional 
names in the hope that further light will be thrown 
upon them.

Well distinguished from its immediate allies by the 
constant yellowish ground colour of the under side; the 
gemination of the two subapical ocelli on the under side 
of the hind wing also occurs in methorina and conjuncta, 
but in the two latter the g has a sex-mark as in 
Doheriyi, a feature which is invariably absent in sakra. 
Clasp similar to that of Y. Dohertyi, Pl. IL., fig. 31.
